New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1924. Second printing. Hardcover. Near fine. Octavo, 367pp., plus advertisements. A crisp, clean copy, near fine, in the publisher's blue cloth, lacking the dust jacket. Inner hinges jsut starting, and spine gilt dulled, else a nice example. A wonderful association copy, SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Van Vechten to Prentiss Taylor, the illustrator and Van Vechten's frequent collaborator. The two white men were among the small group of non-Black artists and writers who were closely associated with the Harlem Renaissance. The two of them were especially close to Langston Hughes, establishing the Golden Stair Press with him in 1931. The inscription reads: "For Prentiss Taylor from Carl Van Vechten. New York February 13-1931." The inscription is followed by a rather lewd drawing of what appears to be a cat's hind quarters.

Octavo, 286pp. A very good copy in the publisher's yellow cloth with pattern in black and red, and black paper printed spine label, lacking the publisher's slipcase. Spine darkened, including the label, which has some scuffs, and some faint offsetting to the boards, else a lovely, clean copy internally, with a wonderful contemporary bookseller label from Gotham Book Mart on the rear paste-down. This is number 41 of 195 limited copies SIGNED by Van Vechten on the limitation page. Though it's often noted that the book's title is "offensive to the modern reader," which is certainly true, it was in fact quite controversial in its time, as well. Van Vechten was the most prominent white artist/intellectual associated with the Harlem Renaissance, and while he was great friends with Langston Hughes, Alain Locke, and other figures, he alienated some friends with the shocking title of his book. Countee Cullen, who bears an epigraph at the…
